Comment tu as fait pour déterminer que /usr/bin/X11 prend 4Go ?
Un lien symbolique ne prend pas 4 Go.
La doc à propos de x11-common évoque la raison d’être du lien /usr/bin/X11 :

x11-common (1:7.0.11) unstable; urgency=low
With the change to X11R7, various paths have been changed, including
where binaries are stored. In X11R6, binaries were installed to
/usr/X11R6/bin and /usr/bin/X11 was a symlink pointing to this
directory. Now binaries are installed to /usr/bin and /usr/bin/X11 is a
symlink that points to /usr/bin. As such, any legacy application that
installs its binaries to /usr/X11R6/bin may be outside your PATH, and
you will need to update the configuration on your system accordingly.
The Debian metapackages used to install all of the X Window System have
been changed with X11R7. They used to be named x-window-system and
x-window-system-core. Now there is only one metapackage named “xorg”. It
is highly recommended that you install this metapackage in order to get
a fully working installation of the X Window System.
