You mean `c' for `gnus-group-catchup-current' or `gnus-topic-catchup-articles' and answering `n' to the y-or-n-p prompt? What I see in the echo area is: - c --> Mark all unread articles in ulm.test as read? (y or n) - n --> Mark all unread articles in ulm.test as read? (y or n) n ... i.e. the response "n" stays there until you hit some other key (e.g. `p', `n', ...). I fail to see anything wrong here.
