Try `sudo chmod +r /usr/share/mysql-workbench/libraries/wb.py*`, there might be
a `pyc` file as for the Fred Blaise.

I'm sorry to disappoint you, but most likely mysql-workbench would be removed
from openSUSE Tumbleweed. The root of this bug most likely lies somewhere in
python2 - ctypes - libffi8 (as it works fine with libffi7). I've created bug
for that, but as python2 is about to be removed understandably there is no many
people willing to dig it. Bug was pinged back to me, but I have no expertise in
python nor time to dive into it, sorry.

So workbench is currently broken, there is no any signs of python3 port ��� only
a couple of years old promise that transition would come and more resent note
that it haven't happened, no any ETA. As python2 would be removed, workbench
would be removed too.

I'm not happy about that, as I haven't found any substitution for MySQL
Workbench. Some people like DBeaver, but I don't like it TBH. Other solutions
I've checked online either looks too basic, or aren't free/open.
