> Parquet CPP has a DCHECK for a dictionary encoded page coming after a
> non-dictionary encoded page. This is bad because the DCHECK can be triggered
> by Parquet files that have a column that has a dictionary page, then a
> non-dictionary encoded page, then a page of dictionary encoded
> values(indices). Fuzzing found such a file. While this could be turned into
> an exception, I don't see anything in the Parquet specification that
> prohibits such an occurrence of pages.
> This situation has brought up on the mailing list
> before([https://lists.apache.org/thread/3bzymmbxvmzj12km7cjz1150ndvy9bos)]
> and it seems like this is valid but nobody is doing it.
> In the PR that added this
> check([https://github.com/apache/parquet-cpp/pull/73)] it was noted that the
> check is probably not needed.
