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:

=3D=3D=3D aurqt/aqds.py =3D=3D=3D
class AQDS:
    logging.basicConfig(format=3D'%(asctime)-15s [%(levelname)-7s] '
                        ':%(name)-10s: %(message)s',
                        filename=3Dos.path.join(confdir, 'aurqt.log'),
                        level=3Dlogging.DEBUG)
    log =3D logging.getLogger('aurqt')
    console =3D 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__)

=3D=3D=3D pkgbuilder/pbds.py =3D=3D=3D
class PBDS:
    logging.basicConfig(format=3D'%(asctime)-15s [%(levelname)-7s] '
                        ':%(name)-10s: %(message)s',
                        filename=3Dos.path.join(confdir, 'pkgbuilder.log'),
                        level=3Dlogging.DEBUG)
    log =3D logging.getLogger('pkgbuilder')
    log.info('*** PKGBUILDer v' + __version__)

=3D=3D=3D aurqt/__init__.py =3D=3D=3D
from .aqds import AQDS
DS =3D AQDS()
import pkgbuilder # =E2=86=90 also imports pkgbuilder.DS =3D pkgbuilder.pbd=
s.PBDS()

=3D=3D=3D bin/aurqt output =3D=3D=3D
