This should be fixed with a new `grokproject` release due to the switch
to `z3c.recipe.i18n` :-)

With introduction of `eggbasket` we started to call
`zc.buildout.buildout.main()` several times in `grokproject`.
Unfortunately `zc.buildout` adds a new logging handler (stream to
`sys.stdout`) each time it is called (and does not remove it after the
work is done). As a result we get every buildout message two or three
times, depending on the amount of times `buildout.main()` was called
before.

I added a function to remove those leftover handlers 'manually', which
fixes that behaviour of duplicated lines. The fix might of course be
improvable.

After downloading `zc.buildout` and installing `eggbasket` in
`grokproject` we run buildout with the '-q' option. Maybe we should make
the output visible? Or at least respect any verbosity options passed to
buildout?

Kind regards,
