Hi there,

jsmin.php as included in Text_Filter [1] uses a non free license.
This causes the package in debian to be patched to
not include jsmin.php. Also fedora does not allow jsmin.php
into its archives.

For more information look here:

A replacement could be

I can propose a patch if you are wiling to accept.
