We prove that for any representation-finite algebra A (in fact, finite locally bounded k-category), the universal covering F: Ã → A is either a Galois covering or an almost Galois covering of integral type, and F admits a degeneration to the standard Galois covering F̅: Ã→ Ã/G, where $G = Π(Γ_A)$ is the fundamental group of $Γ_A$. It is shown that the class of almost Galois coverings F: R → R' of integral type, containing the series of examples from our earlier paper [Bol. Soc. Mat. Mexicana 17 (2011)], behaves much more regularly than usual with respect to the standard properties of the pair $(F_λ, F_•)$ of adjoint functors associated to F.
