Description
I keep getting this error:
TypeError: run() got an unexpected keyword argument 'flags_parser'
My env:
- OS Platform and version (e.g., Linux Ubuntu 16.04)
Ubuntu 16.04 - Python version (e.g. 2.7, 3.5)
3.5.2
tensorboard 1.10.0
tensorflow-gpu 1.10.1
tensorflow-tensorboard 0.4.0
tf-nightly 1.11.0.dev20180917
tf-nightly-gpu 1.11.0.dev20180917
I recently removed tensorflow and installed tensorflow-gpu, now i'm getting this error whenever I try to run tensorboard --logdir=~/my/path, even if i try a simple tensorboard --help:

tensorflow itself is working fine, i'm only getting this error when i run tensorboard
I didn't find any similar issue on StackOverflow so i'm asking here, a little help would be awesome, thanks

Research direction
The only entry point named is the tensorboard CLI, where both tensorboard --logdir=~/my/path and tensorboard --help fail. Start by reproducing the error with the listed Python, TensorBoard, and TensorFlow package versions, then determine which installed package provides run() and the flags_parser argument. Done means the CLI starts successfully without the TypeError.
