It was inadvertently removed from the GH workflow, but should be restored in v0.1.14 package

Hi! The current PKGBUILD for version 0.1.13 seems to fail during the package() step because the binary file name or path doesn’t match what’s downloaded from the new release. 

 # install -Dm755 "${srcdir}/bin/dms-distropkg" "$pkgdir/usr/bin/dms" # doesn't exist
 install -Dm755 "${srcdir}/bin/dms" "$pkgdir/usr/bin/dms" # i replaced with this  to work

Thanks for maintaining this package

u could add a systemd service to start the shell, i've made one that works: file named dms.service

[Unit]
Description=DankMaterialShell
PartOf=graphical-session.target
After=graphical-session.target

[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/dms run
Restart=on-failure
RestartSec=1

[Install]
WantedBy=graphical-session.target

u can install it in "$pkgdir"/usr/lib/systemd/user/ u can also add it to the dms-shell-git package
