I installed cherokee with apt-get from testing source and it serves my
homepage since more than 7 months. Recognising the installation problem
with mediawiki I tried to find out more about this on the cherokee
mailing list.
Here is the part from aptitude log,
[INSTALL, DEPENDENCIES] apache-common
[INSTALL, DEPENDENCIES] apache2-utils
[INSTALL, DEPENDENCIES] libapache-mod-php4
[INSTALL, DEPENDENCIES] libdbd-mysql-perl
[INSTALL, DEPENDENCIES] mysql-client
[INSTALL, DEPENDENCIES] mysql-server
[INSTALL, DEPENDENCIES] php4
[INSTALL, DEPENDENCIES] php4-mysql
[INSTALL] mediawiki
Answer to my question why that happend,
<Quote>
Most packages declare their dependency on 'apache | httpd', which
means "Any web server (but Apache is the first on the list)". Why?
Because that's what the maintainers have tested it against.
If you find a Web-based application which depends on Apache and cannot
be installed with any other Web server (and doesn't have a reason for
that - i.e., if it's a mod_perl application, it _is_ bound to Apache,
like it or not), please file a bug, as it should not depend on that
specific package.

I'm sorry to say that I cannot help further because I purged
mediawiki.deb and installed the beta version of mediawiki (no .deb)
to /var/www and found a solution to make it work with cherokee.
-----
1.create a file (asuming DocumentRoot is where mediawiki has its main
tree, usually in debiansystems /usr/lib/mediawiki/)
##
## Virtual server for mediawiki
##
Directory /mediawiki {
Handler common
DocumentRoot /usr/lib/mediawiki/
}
2.copy that file to /etc/cherokee/sites-available/mediawiki
3.create a symlink from this directory to
/etc/cherokee/sites-enabled/mediawiki
4. chmod 640, chown www-data:www-data
5.restart cherokee

I hope that this will help a little
Best Regards
