Description
I have category 'category1' with posts in it. I want to get posts from 'caegory1' and not existing category 'not_existing'.
if I use URL like 'http://mysite.com/category/category1+notexisting' I get normal archive page but this is a page without post because there are no posts in 'category1' and 'not_exists' at once.
But maybe it is better to return 404 page? Because it produces additional duplicate pages for search engines like google.

If the issue being reported here is that http://mysite.com/category/category1+notexisting queries for posts that match *both* terms (rather than neither term), then it's not a bug, but expected behavior.
If the issue being reported is that an archive with no posts returns 200 rather than 404, then this is indeed a duplicate of #11348.
Not duplicate page but dummy page whitout meaning. This page must not be in index of search engines if it have been found miraculously there
