In Debian, you should always be able to build from source.
So if you could use the original source code, and delete the
binary file (eg: the minimized jscript) that would be the best
option.

There's few compressor available in Debian, like yui-compressor,
and the ones from nodejs (but these are only in SID).

P.S: The above isn't an approval for embedding yet another
version of jquery in your package, I think it should be avoided
as well if possible. Probably one of the options is to patch
upstream source code so that it can work with the target
Debian package and still render well. I have no idea how
practical that would be though.
