https://github.com/exercism/problem-specifications/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#track-configuration-file

Each language track has a configuration file called config.json.

Important keys are:

  • problems - actively served via exercism fetch
  • deprecated - implemented, but aren't served anymore
  • foregone - will not be implemented in the track

This sounds like these are three keys containing lists of exercises, but that's not the case, at least in the Julia track config.json.

Instead we have a key exercises that maps to an array of exercises and to deprecate one, you add deprecated: true to the relevant exercise. We don't have a problems key at all.

I think this section should be rewritten by someone who knows how it works or should be updated to point at more up to date documentation if that exists.
