Description:
On https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/repo/yum/ it looks like I can install mysql-workbench with the yum repos. But it isn't available.

Other docs also seem to indicate the same.

Looks like Workbench for Fedora 23 is not ready (also not in RPM format). But the documentation is not clear about this.

How to repeat:
Try to install MySQL Workbench on Fedora 23 GA

When will this issue be solved?
[12 Nov 2015 13:41] Eduardo Gäedke
Just adding that it's not possible to install a F22 version on F23.
Dependency problem.

I'm waiting for any solution/workaround to be able to use the WB.

Fedora 23 support is underway. Will be available with the next release of WB.

Hi Mike, thanks for your comment on the next release supporting Fedora 23. Could you provide an estimate on when 6.3.6 version will be released? I have a somewhat urgent task to do on WB and I may have to resort to install it on Windows on a virtual machine :\ Thanks and kind regards

It's looks like no one cares about it. Who know good analogs?

Dear Guys,

I have just installed mysql-workbench-community-6.3.6-2.el7.x86_64 on my fedora 23 and the error with libzip still occurs.

[forhelio@localhost Downloads]$ rpm -qa | grep mysql-workbench
mysql-workbench-community-6.3.6-2.el7.x86_64

[forhelio@localhost Downloads]$ mysql-workbench 
/usr/libexec/mysql-workbench/mysql-workbench-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libzip.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Dear Guys,

removed mysql-workbench-community-6.3.6-2.el7.x86_64 and installed mysql-workbench-community-6.3.6-1.fc23.x86_64 using yum repository(installed mysql57-community-release-fc23-8.noarch.rpm). This version is ok for fedora 23.
