Bug #91967	MySQL Workbench crashing on connection

Description:
I tried to connect to my local database with MysqlWorkbench, the connection part seems to work, but then the software crashes.

When I click 'Test connection', it tells me the connection could be established.

Everything works well on command line.

I tried with and without any table in the database, with the same effect.

I will attach the stack trace in a file.

Thank you.

How to repeat:
* Launch MySQL Workbench from a desktop entry or `$ mysql-workbench`
* Click on the connection you want to use
* Wait for the window to load.. then it crashes immediately

Stack trace given by Mysql Workbench in stdout

Thank you for the bug report. Which Linux OS and server version are you using?. Thanks.

Thanks for the reply!

$ uname -a
Linux <my name> 4.14.60-1-MANJARO #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Aug 3 12:49:45 UTC 2018 x86_64 GNU/Linux

My mariadb server version is 10.1.34-1. 

It used to work but after an update I'm getting this crash.

Thank you for the feedback. MariaDB is a server not supported by WorkBench.

Thanks for your amazing support. I found a quick fix:

$ sudo apt install dbeaver
$ sudo apt remove msql-workbench

THANK YOU Paul Combaldieu!
