Of course it would be better. But if you install the xorg meta-package, 
it just doesn't work. You have two options :
1°) look through all the config files to find the wrong line(s) and 
correct it (them);
2°) create this symlink.
Well, I tried the first, but didn't find a way to fix it. If you can, 
tell me. I'd be pleased to remove this un-needed symlink.
