I'm not sure I can explain it in newbie steps; I try with my own
words.

You need to find libpython2.2.a or libpython2.2.so on the new system.
You told the linker to look in /usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages
(in addition to the default locations: /lib and /usr/lib); it
wasn't there.

Try /usr/lib/python2.2/config as a directory instead. Check with
ls whether the file is there; don't try blindly.
