I think that this is the best option we have at this stage. In any case,
it's your call as a maintainer to choose which solution you want to
implement.
Switching to slimit might be a sexy option but also falls in the
changing the compressor category, imho.
How about this:
Now:
1) Skip generating and installing any minified files at build time.
2) Try minify and fallback to copy in postinst script:
for if in $files-to-be-minified; do
of=$(basename $if .js).min.js
javascript-minifier -o $of $if | cp -a $if $of
done
3) Remove minified/copied files in remove state of postrm script:
for if in $files-to-be-minified; do
of=$(basename $if .js).min.js
rm -f $of
done
(javascript-minifier should use same basic syntax as both yui-compressor
and uglifyjs share today.)
Official result now:
* Javascript files will not be minified.
Unofficial possibility now:
* Add /usr/local/bin/javascript-minifier symlink to yui-compressor
* Add /usr/local/bin/javascript-minifier custom compressor script
Official possibility later (perhaps even at a stable point release):
* Add javascript-minifier package with debconf handling of
/etc/alternatives symlinking of /usr/bin/javascript-minifier and
perhaps also /usr/sbin/update-javascript-minifications.
How does that sound? Too complex at this stage?
@Marcelo: What do you think?
What do others in the team think?

P.S. Yes - I still think generally across all Javascript packages...
