codecs fail: ` You tried to apply Simple16 to an incompatible set of integers`

[BruceChen2017]

My machine: WSL2 ubuntu 18.04 x86_64
I run ./codecs --uniformdynamic or ./codecs --clusterdynamic, both give me runtime error:

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::runtime_error'
  what():  You tried to apply Simple16 to an incompatible set of integers: they should be in [0,2^28).
