Double-click launch a bash script with sudo

[japhyr]

Hello,

I am writing a bash script to automate the installation of packages when I configure a new computer. The script is working, but since many of the commands need root privileges, I have to run the script from the terminal, ie "sudo /home/username/Desktop/script.sh". If I double click the script icon on the Desktop, the program runs but fails quickly because it does not have root privileges.

Is there a way to gain root privileges after clicking the script icon?

Have the script use sudo.

you probably want gksudo not sudo for a gui password prompt.
