For the last three mornings I've been seeing dnf update skipped two rpms but have seen no complaints on this list so It seems like time to ask about it:
Skipped: VirtualBox-6.1.4-1.fc31.x86_64 VirtualBox-server-6.1.4-1.fc31.x86_64
Complete!
I installed virtualbox in anticipation of F-32beta but I have not installed anything in a vm yet if that matters?

KVM is part of the kernel, so it won't show up in dnf as a separate package. For practical purposes, you use it via QEMU and libvirt. The easiest way is just to run virt-manager, which has a basic GUI for setting up a new VM.
