A bit out of my depth here, hoping someone might have some ideas of where to look.

With the most recent numpy version released this past week (np 2.3.0), I started getting a new failing test for a package I maintain. With Python >= 3.11 and np == 2.3.0, GL.glGetActiveUniform has started returning an integer array rather than the expected byte string. e.g., the following line of code:

name, size, gl_type = GL.glGetActiveUniform(self.program, 0)
print(type(name), name, size, gl_type)

with np < 2.3.0, the output is

<class 'bytes'> b'modelview' 1 35676

but with np==2.3.0 it is

<class 'numpy.ndarray'> [109 111 100 101 108 118 105 101 119   0   0   0   0   0   0] 1 35676

same version of pyOpenGL in both cases (3.1.9).
