Oops. The broken link is actually to: "../../share/mailman/scripts/mailman".

Does this patch do the right thing?

I think you need to add one parent level (instead of deleting one). The correct number of parents is 3 ("../../../"). Though you could just use ${prefix} instead? ($prefix/share/mailman/scripts/mailman)?
