Sorry, a typo. Both lines should have \! rather than \p. What I want is the
first quaver sf and the hairpin to finish before the next quaver, so that the
3rd quaver is at the same dynamic as the 2nd one.
Here's a better MWV
\version "2.19.52"
\language "english"
{
<<
\new Staff {
\time 2/4
\clef "treble"
c''8 8 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4\break
c''8 8 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4\break

c''8 8 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4
}
\new Dynamics {
s8\sf\> s8\! s4 | s2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2
s8\sf\> s8\p s4 | s2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2
\override Hairpin.minimum-length = #10
s8\sf\> s8\! s4 | s2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2
s8\sf\> s8\p s4 | s2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2
}
>>
}
Line 1 has the hairpin too late at both the start and endpoints. Line 2 has a
warning that the hairpin is too small. Line 3 has the end of the hairpin too
late. Line 4 is fine.

Not quite sure of the output you want here. Your 2 lines of your example
aren't the same since the top line has a piano dynamic on it and the lower line
doesn't. Is the first quaver supposed to have the sf immediately below it? If
so, where do you expect the p dynamic to be? If it's below the second quaver,
all lily can try to do is space the quavers to fit in the minimum length of
your hairpin, which it does.

Subject: Hairpin.minimum-length gives wrong output
This minimal criminal seems to give wrong output. I want to make sure that the
hairpin lasts for exactly one quaver (1/8 note). The first line gives a warning
message that the hairpin is too short. The second line adjusts the length of
the hairpin but it's now too long.
To try it out you may need to modify the number of notes depending on the paper
size.
