npm link workflow question

I may be missing something, but there's something I haven't quite figured out with npm link.I understand that, once you link a dependency, it becomes locally available. My question is, how is a package that contains a link dependency handled when it gets published. Are the links replaced with references to the dependency in the NPM registry, or do you have to manually update to change from linked dependencies to standard depencies?
