met same issue with python 3.9.16 and python 3.10.10 also under macOS Sonoma 14.5

FWIW: I don't need the numpy format handlers so I have used a brutal approach (ignore the fact that the patch is misnamed):

Thanks @totaam : not sure if this will work on our CI, I'll take a look.

Same issue here with python 3.12.4 :|

Has anybody found the solution of this problem? I am facing the same issue with Python version 3.12.3

havent found the problem yet but i found a reference to Py_intptr_t in the numpy C ABI https://numpy.org/doc/stable/reference/c-api/dtype.html#c.npy_intp

Before NumPy 2.0, this was the same as Py_intptr_t. While a better match, this did not match actual usage in practice. On the Python side, we still support np.dtype('p') to fetch a dtype compatible with storing pointers, while n is the correct character for the ssize_t.

this looks like it was fixed in 3.1.8, specifically commit f897b0e

https://github.com/mcfletch/pyopengl/releases/tag/release-3.1.8

seems like its just not released to pypi

Likely solutions until its released on pypi: install from git tag release-3.1.8 or install from the tarball in the release linked above
