I'm not a Maintainer, but I can respond here. Minified files are compiled files. Without the source and the compilation instructions, those files can not be shipped in a debian packages. So yes, if you could obtain source of all minified javascript files included in chromium upstream packages, those files should then appear in a package built by debian. (Of course, their license should be compatible with debian requirements about licences) -- Michaƫl P
