compression disabled even if uglifier is chosen #185

When choosing uglifier as a compressor for javascripts, it still is complaining about missing java. But that's why I chose uglifier, I do not want java on my server.

Can this somehow be patched?

Tnx, Jan-Willem

Jan-Willem,

As mentioned on http://documentcloud.github.com/jammit/#compressors, CSS compression is always done via the YUI Compressor, so even if you use UglifyJS to compress JavaScript, CSS compression depends on a Java runtime.

but wouldn't it be nice to enable compression for just the javascript if UglifyJS is able to do so? Then the css will just be left packaged but not compressed
