--- Comment #2 from Oded Arbel <o...@geek.co.il> ---
I see this issue as well.

This is a problem with libzip4 - as can be guessed from the name, it is
supposed to install the 4th major API version of libzip, which it does on
Ubuntu xenial (as well as on current Ubuntu:
https://packages.ubuntu.com/artful/amd64/libzip4/filelist as version 1.1.2),
and MySQL Workbench relies on libzip.so.4 being available.

Recently Neon has updated libzip to version 1.2, which apparently has a major
upgrade to the API and thus uses major API version 5 (This means its not
promised to be compatible with API version 4 - though as shown in comment #1
and comment #2, it looks like its compatible enough to still get MySQL
workbench loading), but the package name was not changed.

As a result, upgrading libzip4 1.1.2 to libzip4 1.2.0 causes the file
libzip.so.4 to be deleted and the file libzip.so.5 to be installed instead.

I think the solution would be to build a new package - libzip5 that installs
the new version, so that mysql-workbench that depends on libzip4 can still get
libzip.so.4 by asking for libzip4 package.
