If the upstream tarball has both the original and minified javascript, I
don't think we need to actively re-pack the upstream tarball to get rid
of the minified javascript, any more than we need to actively re-pack
upstream source that includes .png icon sources alongside their .svg source.

We should not shipping the upstream-minified files in our .debs  -- we
should re-minify the canonical source and ship the output of that step,
if we need to ship minified files.
