These look good. I was mainly looking for a few odd things that have 
cropped up on previous bug reports.

Yes mysql-gui-tools would have been built against libmysqlclient16.
That in itself should not cause a problem. Changes to /etc/mysql/my.cnf 
and possibly /etc/mysql/debiab.cnf might however. You might be able to 
keep it going by backing out those changes. However there is not a lot 
of mileage in that approach. We really need to understand why 
mysql-workbench is not working for you.

Okay I think you mean the MySQL 'root' user. Access to that for a 
database administrator is reasonable. However trying to access the MySQL 
root user, by running mysql-workbench as UNIX root sounds like a 
security mistake to me (if I understand correctly that that is what you 
are doing). This is starting sound like a mysql-workbench problem to me 
  although I know nothing about that product. I'll just copy them for 
now. Another question. Which distribution do you have in your 
/etc/apt/sources.list file?
