No need to do such magic.  Just set logging up as you would normally.
The first logging instance should pick up logs from everywhere.  For
example:

=== aurqt/aqds.py ===
class AQDS:
    logging.basicConfig(format='%(asctime)-15s [%(levelname)-7s] '
                        ':%(name)-10s: %(message)s',
                        filename=os.path.join(confdir, 'aurqt.log'),
                        level=logging.DEBUG)
    log = logging.getLogger('aurqt')
    console = logging.StreamHandler()
    console.setLevel(logging.INFO)
    console.setFormatter(logging.Formatter('[%(levelname)-7s] '
                         ':%(name)-10s: %(message)s'))
    logging.getLogger('').addHandler(console)
    log.info('*** aurqt v' + __version__)

=== pkgbuilder/pbds.py ===
class PBDS:
    logging.basicConfig(format='%(asctime)-15s [%(levelname)-7s] '
                        ':%(name)-10s: %(message)s',
                        filename=os.path.join(confdir, 'pkgbuilder.log'),
                        level=logging.DEBUG)
    log = logging.getLogger('pkgbuilder')
    log.info('*** PKGBUILDer v' + __version__)

=== aurqt/__init__.py ===
from .aqds import AQDS
DS = AQDS()
import pkgbuilder # ← also imports pkgbuilder.DS = pkgbuilder.pbds.PBDS()

=== bin/aurqt output ===
[INFO   ] :aurqt     : *** aurqt v0.1.0
[INFO   ] :requests.packages.urllib3.connectionpool: Starting new
