OK. Yes, AFAIK it's properly installed. Still, I just ran 'apt-get --reinstall install x11-common', and that recreated the symlink, which will solve the problem. Not sure why the symlink was missing in the first place.
So this is a solution to this bug. I guess the bug should be closed, although it's still mysterious why it occurred in the first place.
