unexpected token: operator (<) when precompiling

[jpaas]

I am getting the following

$ bin/rake assets:precompile
/Users/jpaas/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p327/bin/ruby bin/rake assets:precompile:all RAILS_ENV=production RAILS_GROUPS=assets
rake aborted!
Unexpected token: operator (<) (line: 18169, col: 1, pos: 543284)

undefined

My project only has 1 dust template and this error goes away as soon as I remove it from the application.js manifest. So whatever it's generating, precompile doesn't like it.

This is pretty serious problem because I can't deploy to heroku without precompilation. :(

Just as follow-up, I tried dust_assets, and it works.

Hi, I am having the same problems on Heroku, and I would like to know how to fix it, because your gem is easier than dust_assets.
And I forked it and update the dust.js to the latest 1.2.5 version but I can't run it well :(
