There might be times when compress is run twice.  e.g. when
upgrading openstack-dashboard and /usr/share/javascript/jsencrypt at the
same time.

However I cannot think of anyway to fix this in a way that doesn't create
other problems. So this might actually be the best solution.

(e.g. you could explicitly raise the trigger inside the configure event,
however that will trigger all applications that have an interest
in /usr/share/javascript/jsencrypt which is probably not desirable)
