You might want to read the thread started by this mail:
http://lists.debian.org/20100124144741.GD13468@kunpuu.plessy.org
Basically, everything in main needs to be DFSG-free. If you want to
change that, I'd suggest you re-attempt Charles Plessy's proposed GR.
BTW, I presume you are talking about jsmin, in that case just remove
them and use yui-compressor.
