Oh man, this is my life right now, too. In my case, we're using tensorflow or tensorflow-gpu, depending on the host system and, unfortunately, only Conda offers tensorflow-gpu with built-in CUDA. Add to this that the tensorflow packages themselves are notoriously bad at specifying dependencies and that different versions of tensorflow(-gpu) are available on conda-forge, depending on your OS.

Tensorflow is the worst (along with ReAgent from FB).
I think it's because they have their own internal build systems, but they never play well with pip/conda et al.
One of my recent breakages was installing the recsim package, which pulled in tensorflow and broke my entire app. There's actually a recsim-no-tf package on PyPi, presumably because this happens to loads of people.
