If you use a static binary, you don't need the libraries to live on the compute nodes.  If you use a binary with dynamic linkage (run 'ldd binary.x' to see what the dependencies are), then you need those paths to resolve everywhere the binary launches.

If you have a shared filesystem, just build everything there.

Does anyone know if I need to install the Siesta (ab initio molecular dynamics simulations ) only on the server or on all nodes in a cluster?
Or just a libraries (mpich, blacs, scalapck, etc) on nodes and the libraries and Siesta on the server?
