Note that the deb provided for download on the MySQL site is linked against libzip1 because it was built for natty whereas precise now provides only libzip2. In other words, the package provided by MySQL no longer works out of the box on Ubuntu.

In the meantime, the simple (and risky) workaround:
sudo ln -sf /usr/lib/libzip.so.2 /usr/lib/libzip.so.1
sudo dpkg --force-depends -i ./mysql-workbench-gpl-5.2.38-1ubu1104-amd64.deb
