Do you mean --No lines in buffer--?

I noticed that behaviour, whenever I do :%d in a non-empty buffer.

In one of my plugins I ran into the same problem. The issue was, the
first time, the new buffer was empty, so :%d did not output any spurious
message, only when reloading the buffer, this message appeared. This
drove me crazy. :silent %d_ was my solution eventually.
