The regex you specified says "the literal text 'python2' followed by any single character, followed by zero or more occurences of the character '2'". AFAICS, every single package listed in the log you provided matches that regex. If you actually wanted to remove all python2.2 packages, then apt-get remove --purge 'python2\.2.*' would be more accurate. Regards,
