Thank you, this pointed me into the right direction.
Just in case somebody is interested in the solution.
In the settings file of the project you have to define the option:
ABSOLUTE_URL_OVERRIDES = {
'auth.user' : lambda o:'/profile/%s/' % o.username,
}
to overwrite the get_absolute_url function.
This works for any installed model in the project.
Docs can be found here:
