Description:
I grabbed the DMG off dev.mysql.com. Mounted it, and copied the application to /Applications. Double-clicking on the MySQL Workbench app causes it to immediately crash. This is repeatable as clicking on Relaunch or starting it by double-clicking causes the same result. Here's the crash report pulled by clicking on the "Report" button after it crashes:
