Look where the symlink is pointing to, and do not forget it.

Then you can delete it. 

To restore the link, use the command "ln". The syntax is:

ln -s source_file symlink_name

for example

ln -s /usr/share/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf

creates a symlink /etc/resolv.conf pointing to /usr/share/resolv.conf

Please notice, this is just an example, those named do not exist!
Also "man ln" will help you.


Good luck!
