    Fix Version/s:     (was: 9.0.0)

> [R] Factor levels cannot contain NA
> -----------------------------------
>
>                 Key: ARROW-16768
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-16768
>             Project: Apache Arrow
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: R
>    Affects Versions: 7.0.0
>            Reporter: Kieran Martin
>            Priority: Minor
>
> If you try to write a data frame with a factor with a missing value to 
> parquet, you get the error: "Error: Invalid: Cannot insert dictionary values 
> containing nulls". 
> This seems likely due to how the metadata for factors is currently captured 
> in parquet files. Reprex follows:
>  
> library(arrow)
> bad_data <- data.frame(A = factor(1, 2, NA))
> write_parquet(bad_data, tempfile())
>  
>
